New ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ film is already digging its own grave



Johnny Depp’s Captain Jack Sparrow is on the list of top 100 movie characters of all time for good reason – his character is quirky, witty, and stunningly charismatic. He’s a huge reason the franchise has grossed more than $4.5 billion worldwide. Removing Captain Jack from the film series would just be ... well, a death sentence.

But Disney, which owns the franchise, seems to be a big fan of death sentences these days. Its woke agenda has cost the entertainment conglomerate literally billions of dollars.

But clearly massive profit loss is not going to deter Disney from shoving its progressive narrative down the throats of its waning audience.

In what is certain to be another cinematic disaster, Disney has decided to replace Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow with a black female version in the franchise’s sixth film, which is reported to come out in 2025.

To make matters worse, producer Jerry Bruckheimer said the film will not be a new storyline but rather “a reboot,” meaning that Jack Sparrow is indeed being replaced.

Lauren Chen calls the move “a huge mistake.”

And she’s not the only one who feels this way. According to an article from Express titled “Pirates of the Caribbean 6 without Johnny Depp’s Jack Sparrow ‘doomed to failure,”’ “Fan hearts sank as deep as Davy Jones’ locker following rumors that Disney is planning on Pirates 6 having a black female lead rather than Johnny Depp’s Jack Sparrow at the helm of the Black Pearl.”

“Without [Sparrow], what is the draw?” asks Lauren. “It doesn’t really seem like there is one at all honestly.”

Although nothing is certain as of now, according to unofficial online reports, Ayo Edebiri from “The Bear” is rumored to play Sparrow’s feminized replacement.

“I'm not necessarily against the idea of a reboot,” says Lauren, but “a diverse female lead? No, I'm sorry.”

“Disney clearly has not learned their lesson here. They didn't learn it with ‘Star Wars,’ they didn't learn it with ‘Indiana Jones,’ and if they move forward with this iteration of the project, they're going to find themselves once more losing millions and millions of dollars.”

Here are the select few who can make presidential DEATH THREATS & not get slain by the FBI



Craig Robertson was a 75-year-old man whom neighbors described as being overweight with limited mobility. He walked with a cane.

However, he was extremely active on social media and posted frequent politically charged threats against President Joe Biden.

Now he’s dead.

FBI agents arrived on his Provo, Utah, property to attempt to serve a search warrant hours ahead of the president’s arrival in Utah. Robertson was then shot by agents and killed.

“What he said online is despicable and should have been investigated, and it was,” Glenn Beck comments.

However, Glenn notes that there have been many threats made against former President Donald Trump while he was in office, and those threats went unanswered.

“How about Johnny Depp?” Glenn asks.

In 2017 at the Glastonbury Festival, Depp asked an audience of cheering fans, “When was the last time an actor assassinated a president?”

“Now, I want to clarify, I’m not an actor. I lie for a living. However, it’s been a while,” Depp added.

“Yeah, it sounds like a threat,” Glenn says. “Did they break his door down? Do you remember when the SWAT team came swinging in and broke his windows and then shot him to death?”

Johnny Depp wasn’t the only one.

When asked about a fan flying a Trump flag to "Frozen" on Broadway, Broadway legend Carole Cook said, “Where is John Wilkes Booth when you need him?”

Madonna also told an audience of adoring fans that she had “thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House.”

“Would you have your front window kicked in by a tank, and then shot to death? No, you’re Madonna,” Glenn says, disgusted.

Amber Heard DRAGGED for 'playing the victim' in Savannah Guthrie interview



Amber Heard may be regretting her decision to "speak out" after a video clip from her interview with NBC's Savannah Guthrie was shared on social media Tuesday.

Heard sat down with Guthrie in her first interview since her defamation trial against ex-husband Johnny Depp. The interview is scheduled to air on the "TODAY" show in two parts this week and in its entirety on "Dateline" this Friday.

A preview clip from the interview posted on Twitter has garnered more than 2 million views and thousands of comments — but the "Aquaman" actress isn't going to be pleased with her latest notoriety.

“Even somebody who is sure I am deserving of all this hate and vitriol — even if you think that I’m lying, you still couldn’t look me in the eye and tell me that you think on social media there’s been a fair representation. You cannot tell me that you think this has been fair,” Heard says in the clip.

\u201c.@savannahguthrie sat down for an exclusive conversation with #AmberHeard. "You cannot tell me that you think that this has been fair,\u201d Heard shared, in reference to social media representation.\u201d

\u201cThe jurors didn\u2019t read any of the social media stuff, they listened to the evidence & concluded she was lying. I suggest it\u2019s time for Ms Heard to stop playing the victim.\u201d

\u201c@9inelivez @TODAYshow @SavannahGuthrie @NBCNews @DatelineNBC I wasn't a fan and if she'd have been telling the truth I'd be calling him out. She's a lying, manipulative abuser who still needs to use his name and victims for attention. She represents the worst kind of women!https://t.co/a9ZEjvoJyS\u201d

\u201c@TODAYshow @SavannahGuthrie @NBCNews @DatelineNBC What she doesn't get or doesn't want to admit is that social media opinion was created based on what ppl saw in court: evidence presented, her behavior, her testimony, etc. It wasn't based on some hearsay. Same evidence the jury saw and based its verdict on. Don't blame it on ppl\u201d

Trust me I don\u2019t envy them whatsoever lol. I didn\u2019t know either one of them had never watched either one of them play in movies. Of course I\u2019ve heard of Johnny Depp who hasn\u2019t. Drugs, alcohol, etc.\u201d

\u201c@DiosaBEL7 I thought she said she wanted to be left alone and in peace. Why the heck is she out there doing interviews for ?She very much wants to be in the limelight and continue to stay relevant. One more proof that this was for attention and out of spite.\u201d

\u201c@hottmessNHGQ @TODAYshow @SavannahGuthrie @NBCNews @DatelineNBC Insulting the intelligence of the jury. Really? That won't get her an appeal. They found she acted with MALICE.\u201d

\u201c@TODAYshow @SavannahGuthrie AH has not proven that social media played any role in the trial. The trial is not the TV coverage, duh. It is a legal thing. She must show the jury knew or a witness or judge was affected. Nada. Fix this bias.\u201d
— TODAY (@TODAY) 1655120298
\u201c@simpi_lovemyway @TODAYshow @SavannahGuthrie @NBCNews @DatelineNBC Unreal! I can\u2019t believe this woman would go on TV in an attempt to tell everyone that watched the trial that we were influenced by social media. We were influenced by the lies told by Amber herself!\u201d

A second video clip from the Guthrie interview has also been making the rounds on Twitter, with similar results for Heard's (lack of) public appeal.
